Blizzard wants to seduce you these holidays and during the Christmas days, when you will have more free time, it turns its popular first-person shooter game to the free to play model . This way, you will have enough time to play Overwatch for free and see if you like it or not.
The best time to try Overwatch is now
It is common for Blizzard to allow Overwatch to be enjoyed completely free of charge for one weekend every so often. It is his way of trying to attract new players who are undecided about whether they might like him or not. So now we are not surprised by the news, but we are pleased to know that you will have more days to try one of the best online FPS that currently exist.
From now on and until next January 4, you will be able to play this Blizzard title without having to pay a single euro. A more than generous game period with which you can see to what extent the company’s particular proposal convinces you. And the best thing is that you will not have any type of restriction during the trial period.
All these days that you can play Overwatch for free you can do it with any of the 32 heroes that are available. So you can see the differences between them, their weapons, skills and other details that can make each of them better or worse adapted to your style of play in these first person shooter.
In addition to this theme of the available heroes, you can also enjoy the 28 maps that the game has and most importantly. In the event that you like the title and decide to get it, not only are you going to enjoy a 50% discount on the Legendary Edition on your purchase (from 39.99 euros to 19.99 euros) and a 25 % in the Standard Edition, also of the possibility of keeping all the progress you can achieve during these trial days.
In this way, if you get any extra item, you make sure that it will stay with you after this period that Blizzard will offer during the Christmas holidays to any user interested in trying their title.
The best FPS for this Christmas
We are not going to deny that this Blizzard proposal is great, but it is true that it will not be the only one during these days. We already know that Epic Games is giving away titles every day for fifteen days through its store and they are a great opportunity to get games highly valued by the community completely free.
Still, if what you like is FPS and since Call of Duty Modern Warfare on PS3 you are somewhat disconnected from the genre, these are some of the best shooter titles you can play today:
- CS: GO (Counter Strike: Global Offensive) is still one of the most played titles, a classic that remains in good shape
- Valorant has been climbing positions at a good pace. Possibly because of that push that Riot offers with its entire League of Legends universe, but I would not rule it out if you like the genre
- Destiny 2 is a very good option that now you can play even from your mobile phone completely free thanks to Google Stadia
- Warzone is the free to play proposal based on Call of duty, a success in every way despite the odd bug that sometimes makes the community so angry
- Fortnite was not going to be missing from this list either and it may not be the most striking as pure fps, but due to its events and everything that moves it is still a true spectacle
So you know, it won’t be for leisure options this Christmas. Still, give Overwatch a chance if you haven’t already. It may surprise you.
